Abstract:
The Burren Life Programme (BLP) has received much positive attention for its success in engaging Burren farmers and institutional and civic stakeholders in delivering tangible social, economic and environmental dividends for the Burren through an innovative, performance- based delivery mechanism. This overview traces the evolution— over almost 20 years — of the BLP in order to tell the full ‘story’ of this locally led programme, to extract key learnings and to discuss how these learnings might inform other regions and other actors in the arena of agri-environmental stewardship. In particular, the overview is intended to inform the commissioning authority, NESC, in supporting innovation in agri-environmental policy and practice in Ireland.
